The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian star Ben Barnes is embarrassed about his newly found heart-throb status – insisting he doesn’t feel comfortable when people view him as a sex symbol.

The 26-year-old shot to fame with the title role in the latest adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ classic novels and he has seen his face adorning promotional posters the world over.

But Barnes insists that although he is grateful for the career boost, he is worried about becoming famous for his good looks and not his acting skills.

He says, “I find it all a bit embarrassing to be honest. All this heart-throb thing makes me look at my shoes. I don’t really know how to respond to it. I suppose it’s quite flattering in a way.

“But when I was shown the poster, I said to a producer in all earnestness, ‘Is that sensible? Because you know no one knows who I am.’

“He said, ‘The book’s called Prince Caspian and we’ve got to put Prince Caspian on the poster. Sorry mate.’ I was a bit worried actually.”

Ruth Hessey interviews Ben ‘Prince Caspian’ Barnes, and finds him charming
Ben Barnes is the plebeian name of the dashing gent who plays Prince Caspian, a role he says he approached, with caution. “Particularly in the US where they don’t have princes,” he says smoothly, “the whole prince thing has that ‘Charming’ stigma. I was anxious he didn’t turn into a Hollywood stereotype. He doesn’t swashbuckle in and save the day. He makes mistakes, which make him more interesting.”

Barnes has several years on the English stage behind him, and is set to star as Dorian Gray in the film of the Oscar Wilde story (directed by Oliver Parker) about a beautiful young man who makes a pact with the devil. Barnes appears to be unfazed by the fame that awaits him. “In America Dorian is just like Narnia. Americans have heard of it, but they don’t really know what it means.” It won’t be long before everyone knows what Ben Barnes means – onscreen icecream.
